Card payment integration on Clover Station

Hi guys.

I have an POS android app that can take many payment methods for one order. One of those is card payment so i bought a Clover Station last week to take care of this. But after i read developer guide and reviewed their android examples, i jumped into a conclusion that if i want to integrate (or use) Clover's card payment feature, i have to build a whole new app using Clover database and api to handle my data (user, customer, order, report...).

Is there any way i can integrate Clover's payment card feature and use my own database and api to handle my data ?

Hi,

In the Clover ecosystem, the solution you've described is what we term Semi-Integration. A good place to start would be both our https://docs.clover.com and our Semi-Integration Overview.

Hope this helps-

Mark

Hi Hau,

Assuming you're going with semi-integration via the remote-pay-android SDK, the CloverConnector class is the high-level API that has functions like sale(), to launch Clover's payment service.

@Syslytic Hi Van,

Yes - if you're building an app to be listed on the Clover App Market and installed by the Merchant, then the clover-android-sdk will be the better resource for you. To start Clover's Secure Payment Activity, simply have your app fire an ACTION_SECURE_PAY Intent and pass in the relevant Extras.

Hi Mark, in case of that, can I customize the receipt & payment data report? On the other hand, can Clover's Secure Payment Activity accept payment in multiple way (EX, 50% cash + 50% credit card)?
